Didn't Expect (Book 2 of the KBI series)

Chapter 3 - What. The. Fuck.

What. The. Fuck.

"Hayley baby," I paused in my tracks and my eyes widened beyond my forehead, "You're going to bed? Without me?"

I was hesitant to turn around. My eyes stayed locked on the step in front of me. This couldn't be real. Nope, it wasn't real. It couldn't have been real. I thought back to my assumption that I made before my parents went on their trip. 

It would be too predictable. But because I thought that, suddenly it was unpredictable. Nice one, Hayley. 

I couldn't move, my back was still turned, and I couldn't figure out the proper way to react. Should I run into his arms and tell him I missed them and have an emotional moment or should I, just as easily, walk up to him and beat him up for making me wait so long? My eyes squinted. 

And I knew it must've been his decision because that dumbass runs everything.

Before I could even decide, another familiar voice rang through my ears, this time at the top of the stairs. The accent left no room for debate on who was at the top of my staircase. 

"Hayley, you didn't tell us your house was so nice. That shower head really does something to me." 

My mouth dropped and I slowly lifted up my gaze. From his feet, to his legs and all the way up to only a towel wrapped around his waist, the abs he wore on full display. Finally, I met the eyes I haven't seen in a year. His hair had gotten longer and he slicked his black hair back into a man-bun. His eyes locked on mine, dancing with amusement. 

I couldn't speak. I couldn't place why I was so frozen.

Finally, I thawed myself out. 

Now, remember how I was confused on whether or not I want to have a touching moment or beat their asses?

You already know it was going to be the latter. 

"What the fuck." I said not breaking eye contact with Val, "Val."

"Yes?" He answered as if he was innocent. 

"Val." I said again in a harsher, stressed tone.

"Yes?" He mimicked me. 

"Val."

"Ye-"

"Again? Every time someone in this group always has to replay the same goddamned sentence." I heard another voice causing me to finally turn around and capture the scene before me. 

I'm sorry, but WHAT. THE. FUCK. 

"That's the only think in your vocabulary, isn't it?" Kai spoke up smirking at me. That smirk would make penguins migrate. 

"Not again. Kai I told you last time to stay out of my narration." I told him sternly as Val walked past me down the steps, smelling fresh because he used my body wash. 

"I know, I know." He put his hands up in defense, "But the penguin line? Really?"

"Shut up! I'm fed up, Kai! " I yelled and stormed over to him finally getting the chance to punch his chest over and over without him moving a single inch. 

"How could you do this to me?" I punched. 

"It's been a year, and you think you can waltz up in here and expect me to dance with you?" Punch. 

"Do you even know how that made me feel?" Punch.

"I had to make my own tacos!" Punch. 

Kai grabbed my hands and brought my full attention to his eyes. But before I could look up, I took a chance to check him out. Like always, Kai was dressed to perfection. His faded haircut was fresh, his colorful designed button-up fit his body in all the right ways and his pants-
